New Playable Content for Killing Floor: Incursion to Debut at Oculus Connect

Tripwire Interactive will be showcasing Holdout Mode.

Oculus Connect 4 (OC4) begins tomorrow featuring the latest news and announcements from the company that spearheaded the revival of virtual reality (VR) as a consumer product. For attendees there’s going to be plenty for immersive titles on display there, with Tripwire Interactive confirming today that it’ll be debuting new content for its horror shooter, Killing Floor: Incursion.

The studio will be demoing a new gameplay mode for Killing Floor: Incursion, the one announced in August called Holdout, which it detailed in a blog posting: “After players complete a level in the campaign, that level will be opened up to be played in Holdout. Inside this level will be a single location that players are tasked with defending as long as possible. As previously mentioned, there is a continuous onslaught of Zeds – this means no breaks for trading. Starting with a pistol and knife, players will need to scavenge for better weapons as time goes on. As players progress, the Zeds will start getting more aggressive and more challenging Zeds will enter the fray, including multiple bosses at once!”

Tripwire Interactive will be discussing the title and its new updates in a talk, titled ‘Killing Floor to Shattered Ceilings: Leveraging Established IP to Break Into VR’. The team will also be delving into the challenges and key knowledge gained in bringing the Killing Floor franchise to VR.

Exclusive to Oculus Rift and Touch, the videogameimpressed VRFocuswith the review saying: “Killing Floor: Incursion’s single-player campaign is a glorious action romp that’s easy to play through in one sitting.”

VRFocus will be at OC4 this week to bring you all the latest announcements.
